How to Claim Back Overpaid Income Tax from LHDN Malaysia

May 6, 2009 · Filed Under Tax Management · 2 Comments 

Received any letter from LHDN informing that your are not allowed to claim back overpaid income tax as your account did not indicate any figure available for the claiming?

Recently, my friend received a letter from LHDN.

“akaun tuan tidak menunjukkan apa-apa baki kredit yang boleh dibayar balik”
Hassle E-Filing

I’m scratching my head and looking at the letter, WTH does it mean? I could even feel more comfortable if they send a letter to tell me that I have been imposed penalty due to the underpaid income tax and attached with supporting documents for clarification. At least, it makes me feel more confidence that they are doing their job in the right way! Else, the statement seem like telling you the account tiada apa-apa baki kredit yang boleh dibayar balik and no need to payback any underpaid income tax. The account shows credit and debit are perfectly tally, no extra, no less! How confidence are you with such a statement?

Use Taxasaya for Next Tax Submission

This is why I should highlight here again for my previous post regarding about the first and only tax software in Malaysia, Taxsaya! Let be aware how important is the printable and traceable inputs for your tax calculation to prove how we get the final figure is absolutely important for case happened on above.

A Better Choice than E-Filing

Taxsaya is a user friendly software and available for free download. I have downloaded the free version of Taxsaya tax software and try it. It is really simple enough to use and I believe for those people unfamiliar with computers can use it as well. Furthermore, Taxsaya supports Bahasa Malaysia, English and Chinese so most of the Malaysian does not have to worry about language barriers. But, feel sorry to our lovely Indian friends, perhaps Taxsaya will support Tamil as well in future. Generally, this is simple and reliable personal tax software. I would say it better than e-Filling! At least Taxsaya comes with much more features that are not found in e-Filling.

What I like about Taxsaya:

  • Taxsaya is free to use
  • Taxsaya supports multi languages
  • Taxsaya is simple and user friendly
  • Taxsaya is created by both software and income tax experts to assure accuracy
  • Taxsaya is legitimate software
  • Taxsaya is completely free

Another good point about Taxsaya tax software I must highlight is the traceable and printable inputs and derivation on the calculation used comparing to E-Filing. This is very important and useful features to show the IRB tax officer how we get the figures if there is any argument on the variance results obtained by both parties. Else, what can you do with the e-Filing’s receipt (just a simple receipt without any details on the calculation) to prove that your calculation is correct? As a result, it will definitely delay the process of redemption on the extra paid income tax.
